"Herbert Coleridge won the Newcastle and Balliol scholarships while at Eton and took a double first at Oxford in 1852. He was a distinguished member of the Philological Society, being learned in Sanskrit, and the northern languages including Icelandic. In 1859 he published his "Glossarial Index to the Printed English Literature of the Thirteenth Century" as a foundation for the New English Dictionary (subsequently published by the Clarendon Press as the Oxford English Dictionary). He married Ellen Penshouse Phillips in 1853; they had no children. He died at 10 Chester Place, his old home, of pulmonary tuberculosis, at the age of thirty-one."
